  • Hello and thanks for your post

    Unfortunately, there is a NHS backlog causing delays in processing laboratory results, so this is not unusual at the moment. Unfortunately, we cannot tell you exactly how long you will have to wait to get your scan results as there will be some regional variations in different NHS Trusts.

    But, if you don't hear anything by the end of the week, then do ask your GP to enquire, or ring the specialist/consultant secretary for an update.

    I hope you know more soon. Give us a ring if you would like to talk anything over. The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

    Kind regards,

    Celene
